ELEMIAH'S EVOLUTION

The creation of my narrowboat from the dreams of another. Nb 'ELEMIAH' was built from the ideas and research of one David Jackson and first hit the water as 'PAPA LAZAROUX' in Oct 2004. In Nov 2004 I saw the boat for sale on the internet and knew that this was the right one for me. I bought her and this Blog tells the rest of the story...........

It Has Been a While

Regulars to CWF will know that I have been keeping a log on 'ELEMIAH's progess through threads on that forum. I thought it might be an idea to return to this Blog - mind you it has taken the best part of 20 mins to 'break back into it' couples with an update to Google blogging. Well, 'ELEMIAH' has been with Kinver Boat Services for some 7 months now (whats an overrun of 4 months here or there!!). The workmanship is excellent although Mo and I need the opportunity to 'live with 'ELEMIAH' now to really see what has (and what hasn't) been done. Standby for some photos - hopefully the interior should complement the paintwork done by Adrian at Springwood Haven boat yard. We move off from KBS at Brierley Hill on Fri 16th March and should be in Lechlade by 26th - I just hope the rains desists so the Thames returns to a more 'normal' state.
